Breathe Free Duct Cleaning

Delivering a breath of fresh air

One thing almost everyone looks forward to as the weather gets warmer is opening up the house to let in the fresh air. A good airing-out combined with some spring cleaning makes a home a nicer place to be. But what you might not think about is that as soon as your heat (Michigan nights stay cool for a while!) or air conditioning is turned on, your system is blowing dust, dirt, and allergens throughout your house.

Breathe Free Duct Cleaning in Jonesville can remove the dust, lint, pet hair, and other debris from your air ducts and detect if there are any problems with the airflow within your system. “People think the dirt in the ducts won’t be disturbed, but the fact is that anything can jar it loose—a kid bouncing a ball indoors or someone walking heavily—then it’s airborne,” explains Ryan Griffiths, owner of Breathe Free.

The service team consists of two technicians with specific training for duct cleaning who use a powerful, truckmounted system that will pull up to 12,000 cubic feet of air per minute. All of your registers are masked off and the cleaning is performed from a single location in the home. Compressed air is introduced into the ducts and special cleaning equipment loosens the debris from the duct walls. Suction then draws everything out of the ducts. In addition, the register covers are taken outdoors for cleaning and disinfection. All work is guaranteed 100%. “If we overlooked something or you feel something isn’t quite right, my team and I will be back to take care of it,” says Ryan.

While they’re at your home dealing with the air ducts,

Breathe Free can help eliminate a leading cause of home fires: dirty dryer vents. A build-up of lint in your dryer vent is a fire waiting to happen, and the service team can easily make your home not only cleaner but also safer.

An optimal time for duct cleaning is when you’re building a new home, remodeling the one you’re in, or buying an existing home. Construction means drywall dust, sawdust, and other debris, so get your ductwork cleaned once construction is completed. If you’re moving into an existing home, have whatever has collected in the ducts during the previous owners’ occupancy cleared out before you move in.

Along with cleaning the ducts, Breathe Free can install a REME-Halo unit on your furnace that will clean the air as it passes through your HVAC system. This low-voltage unit is attached to your furnace’s air supply, providing whole-house air purification. It breaks down mold spores, bacteria, viruses, and odors and passes an ionic charge to dust, dander, pollen, and allergens in the air. The charge causes those contaminants to stick together which means that more of them are caught by your furnace filter so there is less particulate matter in your home’s air.

Ryan stresses that air cleaning is the most important factor and installing the REME-Halo unit can be done separately from the duct cleaning. “If someone isn’t currently in a position to do both the duct cleaning and having the unit installed at the same time, the air cleaning should come first,” he says.

If your home doesn’t have air ducts, it’s still possible to have cleaner air. Breathe Free now carries desk top units that can improve air quality in your home or at your workplace. Feel better at work by breathing cleaner air in your office or cubicle. Make the employee break room a nice place to be by installing a desk top unit! There are also plug-in units for maintaining more healthful air quality when you’re on the road.

Breathe Free Duct Cleaning cleans commercial and industrial sites in addition to residences, and Ryan has seen quite an uptick in those calls in recent months. If you are a business owner or have input into maintaining optimum conditions for employee health and wellness, call Ryan to discuss the benefits of having workplace duct systems thoroughly cleaned.
